Posts: 68Found a good roundup of ATM machines in one place. If you ever visit the mall in San Diego (across from Exito in San Diego), there are 4 ATM's on the ground floor: Daviencio, Scotiabank, bank of Colombia, and another one that starts with be (not BBVA). But they are all together in one place. Oh I know I butchered the names, my bad.

I got to say as far as scam or dishonesty go that Cartagena tourist area is at a whole different level. I took my clothes to a wash by kilo laundry place. A 3 kilos on my travel scale became 6 kilos. I did not argue with them but I brought my scale with me to show them when I picked up clothes. They just smiled and I paid and left. Pretty much anything service related have a potential for scam. I hire a taxi to a club for 10 K. On return trip, I end up paying the same taxi, same driver 15 K.

Posts: 248One Man's Perspective on Cartagena and SA
Gents,
I just come back from Cartagena and I must say I was very disappointed by mongering in Cartagena. I spent most of the time in Centro and historic area. Too many tourists. I did most of my mongering on Seeking Arrangement (SA) and was very disappointed with the qualities of the girls. They were expensive and not so hot. Many of them say they are in CART but actual lies they are living 45 minutes or more away from the city. I met one girl and she didn't look anything like her photos. So I sent her home. I didn't see much street actions, but I was also not going outside after 8 pm. So I don't know if there are pretty street women.
Maybe others have different CART strategy, but looking on SA was not good. I had much better luck in Medellin and Bogotá on SA. The only time I had sex in CART was with the left hand.
Good luck.
U1.

A Asian girl will just get on top and bounce up and down like a rocking horse. A Colombian or Venezuelan will hop on top start riding and will do a whole 360 while riding without the dick slipping out. Not even DR chicas are on that level of that exorcist riding level.
No two are the same Its like that chicken sandwich war between these franchises, everyone have the one they like and prefer. Even though its echoed through out the forum its still not heard.

There are mongers that just want to sit by the pool in their Airbnb smoke cigars and invite random girls over from dating apps. (girl shows up and her dating app pictures was before she had a baby or right after she had the tummy tuck before she put the weight back on).
There are mongers that all they want to do is go to stripclubs every night and justify it by saying they like to see the merchandise before they buy (Then they come out saying it looks good but it was loose, of they had a funny smell, or she was wack).
Sometimes I just laugh at people and tell them they just collecting stamps in their passports because they spend all that money, go to a different country, and end up doing the same exact shit they could have done back home the only difference is that its cheaper overseas.

Still as I said in my earlier post, I love Thailand and if I had more time and money I would spend more time there. I personally prefer Patong Beach (I know most argue Pattaya and I understand why, more girls on the long walking street) but I like being in Patong Beach because the sand is whiter and Bangla Rd is right there with a sufficient variety of girls and still a person is in walking distance to the gorgeous beach, I get an apartment with a view on a beautiful bay. And I can catch a boat tour or take a girl out to Phi Phi Don etc etc. You cannot even compare that part of the experience to Cartagena. But as far as the quality of the girls. For my experience and my taste even given the overwhelming numbers of girls in a place like Bangla Rd. I will find more hot chicas for my tastes in LDV than in all of those Go Go clubs.

You ask the other poster what is unique about Cartagena. Besides the UNESCO world heritage site? - it is the concenration of hot chicas for sale in one small area. For quantity and quality there is no place I know of in the western hemisphere that compares -.
Are you honestly going to try and say that there are as many hot chicas in El Centro or Santa Fe as one can even find in Dolce Vita on a good night? - the quality is not even close and if you disagree than we just disagree. You can argue that I will have to spend more money but, I stand by the quality of the chicas being overall better and I like the old city and so that is why it is unique. Maybe it is different styles and different taste but its not for me to go walk for blocks in these niehborhoods and sorting through all the mediocre "doable" chicas when I can walk in LDV and there are ten hot chicas standing within ten feet.

I do tend to trust the subjective opinion of people that have been to various places versus a person that has only been to 1 place and glorifies that place. In this case, Nypher and HOT have been to various mongering destinations, yet see 2 different things in Cartagena. Different strokes for different folks. The only way to know is to go and get your own experience.

The reason he is basing his judgements on the place not meeting his expectations is partially because he obviously did not RTFF. Some of his experience was just bad luck but others could have been avoided had he researched more. For example , it is frustrating to see someone complain that they got charge extra for BBBJ when there are so many posts about negotiating these things before hand. then his comment about the beaches and the water, no one on this forum as ever said Cartagena has beautiful beaches (of course he did not take a trip to Islas del Rosario) or clear water. Cartagena has soil erosion, so the beaches are browner and the water is not clear, but its not "filthy water". Not the same thing.
His statement about all the girls being hard core pros makes me question whether he even got out of Plaza de los Coches. Maybe I take for granted my knowledge gained from experience but I most often have find a sweet little thing in LDV who is only visiting from Medellin or Bucaramanga trying to work temporarily to make college money or just pay for their vacation to Cartagena. My experience is that less than half the chicas are all that hardcore. Then again if you are basing it on comparing it to Thailand, the girls in the Go Go bars in Thailand can and often do look like children compared to girls anywhere in the world so that may be that he only has one point of reference.
Here is a tip - the sweet ones rarely fly solo - they are most likely to congregate and be talking with at least one other chica becuause it makes them feel more secure - they are the ones that are most likely to feel nervous standing alone. that said when you start talking to the chica and negotiating you want to get her away from her friend(s) at least out of earshot because she is less likely to admit to doing things like BBBJ in front of her friends (chicas think its "dirty"). That said also remmber that chicas that are thieves may work in teams so do not take both chicas to your apartment unless you have a wingman to help watch

Let him talk. All experiences are useful, IMHO.
So he had a bad time. He fell for some scams. He got bad food poisoning. A sequence of events like these can make anyone cranky.
Cartagena can be a lot to a newbie. There is not much in his post that doesn't ring true. Maybe the generalities, but the heat, the scams, the worst fucking touts in the whole wide world! The city beaches are total shit, girls are scammy. It's all true. You know that.
Now since you all love Cartagena, to you it's like a heresy. I'm somewhat in the middle. I've only been there once. I loved the beauty and history of the walled city, loved the food, and I did have a few decent encounters with the local talent. But those constant scams can be tiring. My advice to OP is to take a deep breath and see the place for what it is. Not perfect, but not a shithole. Not all Colombians are dishonest, but people WILL try to scam you. Scams are much easier to fend off when you're ready and not drunk. And sometimes it's OK to lose a little money, it's not the end of the world.
